The hihat is playing a straight shuffle.
(first and third notes of a triplet)
The snare is playing the middle note of the triplet on all four counts
(ghost notes), in addition to the downbeat of 3 (accented)
x is a ghost note, X is a regular note, _ is a rest
hi hat top line, snare second line, bass drum third line
X_X X_X X_X X_X | X_X X_X X_X X_X
_x_ _x_ Xx_ _x_ | _x_ _x_ Xx_ _x_
X__ __X ___ X__ | __X ___ X__ __X
